Red, Blue and White

 
When red symbolizes passion, anger, danger and fire
Blue signifies cool, wisdom, stability and serenity
One glows hot like war and desire
When red symbolizes passion, anger, danger and fire
It can cause chaos to confuse and conspire
Losing the purpose of identity and integrity
When red symbolizes passion, anger, danger and fire
Blue signifies cool, wisdom, stability and serenity

In the struggle to maintain a true and fair democracy
Some secretly connive to achieve more power
They spread lies to establish an autocracy
In the struggle to maintain a true and fair democracy
They spread a venom throughout the bureaucracy
Hoping that the masses will grovel and cower
In the struggle to maintain a true and fair democracy
Some secretly connive to get more power

In the search for healing, decency, unity and peace
The truth will come out and shine a light
Though some will not quit or won’t cease
In the search for healing, decency, unity and peace
For some their hatred becomes a disease
They’ll fight and not see the flag also has white
In the search for healing, decency, unity and peace
The truth will come out and shine a light
